After the business of the lodge was finished, election of the new offi cers for the ensuing term was held. Exalted ruler Brother Paul S. Holli lay, read a report of his stewardship ror the past 11 months. It was re ceived with rounds of applause and before being placed in the archives of die lodge Brother Holliday was given i rising vote of thanks and termed die best exalted ruler that the Elks if this city have ever had. The meet ng was the largest and most har monious ever held in a local Elks odge, there being more than 260 members present. Brother Holliday vas unanimously elected to succeed v ;! TOYVILLE | Where great variety makes it quite easy •! to fit the Toy to the Child jj TOYS that AMUSE, INSTRUCT and £ ENTERTAIN J The Fifth Floor :j himself for the third successive time, with peace and harmony prevailing. Brother Holliday’s old cabinet was returned to office with him. Brother W. L. Meyers was elected to fill an unexpired term on the trustee board for the next five years. The following members were re ported as being on the sick list: Brothers Ed. Killingsworth, Preston Gamble, E. A. Williamson, Joe Kaig ler and Allen Jones. Brother James Carter, who was acciderrtally shot while on a hunting trip was able to be out to the meeting and gave a lec ture on Elkdom. Brother Charles Joiner, a member of this lodge, but now a resident of Denver, Colo., was a visitor as was also Brother Harry Douglas of Gopher Lodge, No. 105, St. Paul, Minn. The records of the organization show that during Brother Holliday’s administration the membership of the organization has been increased more than 100 per cent and never in history has the financial condition of the order been better than it is at this time, more than 35 hundred dollars having been added to the treasury in the past year, making Iroquois lodge No. 92 the largest and strongest lodge in the city and one of the largest and strongest in the mid dle west. The property owned by the Elks has grown too small to ad equately house the organization. At this time a stupendous building pro gram has been arranged. The plans are for a fifty thousand dollar lodge hall and community center within the next five or six months. The success of Brother Holliday may be attributed to that spirit of unity and co-operation which is only characteristic of an Elk. N. A. A. C. P.
